It depends on the picture, for me! For this one, I started with a Multiply layer set to around 70% opacity, drew on coppery brown circles around the ears and under her eye, cleaned it up and used the Smudge tool at 3px and 1px to blend the circles in, then I duplicated the layer and set it to Colour. Sometimes it makes the edge of the ears look odd, so I tend to use the Smudge tool on the edges of the original photo itself to help blend that a bit better. And I used the Clone stamp set around 7px or so to take out the bottom jaw. Usually I just mess around with Layers 'til something looks half-decent!
"I guess you're right," Saena said with a grin, although her eyes shared her doubts. Maybe as a wild wolf and therefore a superior canid, she should've been able to fight off a dog. Maybe she was a coward for running away, although Luke certainly didn't think so. Saena didn't truly believe it, but she wasn't really a fighter. If necessary, she could probably hold her own like any other wolf without any formal training (it wasn't really needed), but it was something she actively sought to avoid.
If nothing else, she was glad that Luke didn't judge her for it like she sometimes judged herself. Maybe she would've been able to save her tail if she'd been braver, or maybe she'd be dead. It was hard to say how wildly Dogmeat could fight if he had to.
"Oh, sorry," she said, feeling flushed that she'd forgotten the most basic etiquette there was: introductions. "I'm Saena Blacktail, from Blacktail Deer Plateau," and then, in case he thought that naming herself after her pack was sort of weird or presumptuous, went on to add, "I was born there, so that's why."
